[QUOTE="SheilaC, post: 6749, member: 3325"] Misty is adopted. We have limited info about her family tree; however, we did interact with her mother some and I am confinced she was a severe ADHD and probably some other issues. Her mother also had an eating disorder and her family had violent tendences. Misty came to us when she was just six weeks. Currently she is on Focalin XR 40 mg in the morning, Focalin 20 mg in the afternoon; depakote 125 mg; trazadone at bedtime'guanfacine half twice a day. And still she stays up all night one night about every other week or so. The only trigger I can tell is when she doesn't get her way though this is more prevalent when she is tired. She has no impulse control what so ever either. She chews her nails and nail beds terribly and tears any piece of paper she can get hold of. We have tried Concerta and Straterra to no avail. A behavior log is a good idea. Any suggests on how to keep it? What information I need to note? Just reading the other notes is helpful as well as we got a real kick out of the you might have a difficult child if.... [/QUOTE]
